i131 advance parole
We have received RFE for our i131 because we traveled while it was pending, so they consider it as abandoned (we had valid Visa for travelling). Can we send a new I131? or since we have not responded to the RFE they will not accept it? anyone in this situation?
Thank you

I have the same case but still didn’t travel , I have my valid visa I want to travel but my adjustment of status pending looking for any help or experience

At least for L1, it does not affect i485, only i131

I think they have this rule that once you apply for adjustment of status and start using benefits such as EAD it over throws your previous status so in this case it over throws your status as a visitor or whatever status your previous visa was. I had a similar experience with a B2 visa and pending i485

and what did you do? did you send a new i131?

@Davinia lol I got to the airport and was so nervous. My husband has a friend who knows an immigration lawyer and did us a favor by calling to clarify. he responded quickly and that's how I narrowly escaped to situation. My Visa was a h2b seasonal work visa

@Davinia I would advise you to contact an immigration lawyer

do you get any decision on i131?

It was denied. I sent a new one and it was approved with expedite request

@Davinia Hernandez what about your AOS case did they consider it abandoned?
